The U.S. and Vietnam are holding negotiations on sharing nuclear fuel and civilian nuclear technology, an agreement that will enable American companies to invest in the Southeast Asian country’s atomic industry.
The talks build on a March agreement between the countries to expand cooperation on peaceful nuclear energy that may aid U.S. companies such as General Electric Co. Vietnam said in June it plans to build as many as 13 nuclear power plants with a capacity of 16,000 megawatts over the next two decades.
